Well, I managed to FINALLY get an appt with the rhumatoligist I see for autoimmune issues but its not until May. I wanted to get an opion from him on the...
Sounds about the same speed as the UK ... Quite an interesting scenario as the anaphalaxis is a 'lost-the-plot' immune response. (I think!) He/she might enjoy...
Whilst walking from my front door to the car this morning I heard and then saw my first bumblebee of the year feeding off the heather in our front garden....
I'm actually more worried about a full blown autoimmune attack than I am of a sting at this point. I've had them before and they are really scary but its been...
Hey Ya'll After an eight week interval, instead of the usual four, I had my maintenace shots this past Tuesday. Everything was normal, for me, a little bit of...

Hi I wasn't sure where else to ask, and thought someone here may know the answer. I was filling in a form so that my son can go on a trip - he has severe nut...
Hi Sun, I think you ask an interesting question. I believe but am not certain that normally proteins do not enter the blood but get exposed to the blood and we...
... ah yes, I think you're right Doug :-) thank you. ... lol! I've only seen it a couple of times, I learned one thing from him, and that was how to ask my...
Hello all, It's taken me over a month of coffee breaks to read through postings 1 - 2051 of the forum. I feel like I've known some of you for a long time...
After reading few a few thousand posts I thought I'd share one of my own critter stories… This takes place about 10 years ago cycling to a fitness gym....
Thought I would just say I am very pleased to hear that your son's treatment progresses well. Please do keep us all updated - particularly as it can be very...
The BAD news is that the Royal Surrey phoned this morning to cancel my son's appointment this afternoon! Two parents who had taken the day off not impressed! ...
Finally got to see the consultant over at the Royal Surrey hospital this morning. Yes David, it was the consultant that you mentioned. We had a long and...

I am glad you found them helpful Roz - her advice does seem sensible and statistically she is absolutely right. If you do go up to St Marys then I would be...
Fantastic news Roz - such a relief they are looking into it. Like David says the advice sounds sensible - it is the route I currently take with reaction. My...
We're in week 6 of the weekly shots and all is still going well (I think that puts us at about 1/100th - 1/50th of a maintenance dose). The needles, once so...
I am delighted to hear about your son's progress - great news and what a good idea the ice is! In response to your question about feeling unwell, I think most...
Thank you David for the advice and the holiday well wishes. Shot six again well today. The fever turned out to be a non issue as his temperature was normal...
My pleasure Dave - I asked the allergist about this today. He confirmend my view and said that it was also thing worth mentioning that if you are asthmatic...
I had a letter from Dr. Deacock today, basically summing up the consultation but also referring Joe to Professor Warner at St Mary's. The letter also contains...
These RAST tests are accurate insofar as they do measure the specific IgE in the blood - it is either there or it is not but sometimes for some reason the...
Roz, Just a thought - it may well be worth considering a skin prick test on Joe. We tend not to do them as much in the UK as in the US for insect stings, but...
Gee, it would be fabulous if he really was neg and one of the kids that has outgrown it :) I think David is spot on with the skin testing again. Catelyn ... ...
